Complaint Review: Macson Lee

Macson Lee is a fake gold bars seller. He signed a contract with my buyer to deliver to Italy 10kg of gold bars and never happen. The buyer agrees in his procedures to pay for the ticket from Abdjan to Milano but it also never happen. Initially he presented his agent in the name of Jose Luis Crespo but was already in the Italian Police file as fake seller.

Subject: Visa status / delivery update

 

Good Morning gentlemen,

 

The only obstacle in this transaction is the visa for Europe. I have contacted a travel agency here that can help to apply and obtain European visa within 72 hours. But there European travel package comes together with visa plus ticket plus hotel accomodation. It means that the travel agency will provide visa within the shortest possible time, but we must buy the flight ticket and pay hotel accomodation through them.

This might not be acceptable to your buyer, so i asked you and your buyer to hold on, whenever we have the europe visa in future we will start business. For now there is no possibilty of getting the European visa easily unless through this reputable travel agency.

Regards

Macson

 

The buyer didnt mind to deal with the travel agency, but
Mr Lee never provided details of it.

 

The buyer offer to help him to get Italian visa but he
didnt answer on it as well.

I have sent to him a last email and he didnt give any
good proposal about the deal.

Definitively he dont have any gold bars to sell and is a
scammer!

every week for sale.

 

Just answer this email and forget about a big fool The
buyer also offered to get you a visa and you never answer!!!

 

 

I have also asked 3 times for the full details of the
travel agency and you refuse to give it!

If your story is real and the travel agency is real what
is your problem in giving details?

If is a legitimate company the buyer will deal with them
in order to get your visa!
